Our energy and how we utilize it throughout our life is key to helping us stay healthy throughout the year, especially in the summer. Many people have different ways to interpret energy, but let’s make it more direct in how we feel during our daily activities. Going back to the basics, we would have to conclude that staying hydrated and having good nutrition is important for our bodies to have good energy.

Part of our brain can be hardwired that way as a means to protect us. However, when we build up the courage and hold onto a vision, we can conquer the obstacles so that what was so scary at first becomes a well-satisfied accomplishment.

It might surprised you that there are heavy metal toxicity found in some baby formulas. The article goes on to explain that breast feeding is best and always has been. There are also some baby formulas that are okay but still not the best. We know of one from the Weston Price foundation that helps babies thrive but takes some work to get it made. What’s more important than a baby’s first foods?

Let's talk about the over use of polyunsaturated fatty acids and how that causes trouble with the functions of the body.  The article talks about this especially with pregnant women and looking at the health of the forthcoming baby.  Just one of those things that we’ve gotten used to, eating fried foods made in the seed oils, but is also one of the big reasons why we have so much degenerative disease in this country. 

Our health is becoming a greater concern for many, but let’s break it down and see how we can simplify the process to put to rest the confusion of how we got this way in the first place.

When you think of sickness what do you think of? Do you think of “catching the cold”? Do you think about those feelings of nausea, maybe having a temp, or having to go to the bathroom more often? Or perhaps you think about the statistics of illness in the country. Did you know according to the CDC website 6/10 have one chronic illness and 4/10 have two or more? Those are old numbers, so trends may be higher. What if we were going about sickness in a way that is not optimal fo

It's important to realize that our bodies work better if they’re allowed to interact with viruses and bacteria so that it keeps the immune system strong.  Realize, though, that the immune system will get strong if the body has the correct nutrients for the body to do that, but if a person is living on ultra processed foods and soda and the like, the body will not be able to strengthen it correctly. 

As we reflect on Memorial Day, let's remember the importance of appreciating life and those who fought to make it enjoyable. Slow down, take a breath, and savor the moments in front of us, building up the good rather than focusing on the bad.

At Natural Health, we know lots of good ways to help to avoid Osteoporosis and can even help patients understand what that word means, especially as it pertains to the medical reports.  There’s a lot of misinformation out there on Osteoporosis and we want to try to help clear that up.

In our health shop this month were talking about Women’s Health, and this week we’re talking about breast and cervical cancers. Our goal here at Natural Health would be to have women be healthy and not even get into these disease processes. There are many things people can do to prevent all kinds of cancers but you must be aware of them and work them into your daily life and lifestyle.

Have you ever stopped and wondered, in spite of everything that has happened in life, how you ended up where you are right now? Whether you are where you want to be or maybe you want to get better in a certain area of life or achieve health goals, we always have the power to redirect. Sometimes it can seem like a herculean effort to achieve this feat but sometimes to move a mountain we must start one stone at a time.

Have you ever been caught out in the middle of nowhere? That answer could be a yes or no depending on how adventurous you may be. Say, for instance though, you were in the middle of nowhere, you were not familiar with your surroundings, there could be predators around, but, you knew help was on the way.

Women that have problems with fertility usually have problems with diet and attrition and the ability for the nervous system to coordinate all the hormone pathways in the body that lends towards pregnancy. Again, with our Nutrition Response Testing technique, we can ask the body what it needs to be healthy and allow it to do what it needs to do, especially for women who want to become pregnant.

Have you ever wondered how the pharmaceutical company was started in the first place? It is something to think about but that could be a much longer conversation. However, the notion of medications being used for health comes from the idea that our bodies are deficient in chemicals that we need to manufacture and consume. This may be good for extreme cases and certain issues that need more intensive care.

This coming week we’ll be talking about Hormone Imbalance and should be an interesting topic. Over the years, we’ve treated many patients with hot flashes and other hormone imbalances, and find that diet has a lot to do with it. Also, when women go through menopause, the adrenal glands take over and most of them are already stressed anyway.

This week's talk is about lymph glands. Now, the lymph system may not get all the praise as other systems of the body, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t just as essential. Our bodies are wonderfully created and designed to be healthy and adapt to the world around us. Although we may have been or are being told differently, the human body is the most sophisticated technology in the world.

This week we’re talking about swollen lymph glands.  It’s important to realize that swollen lymph glands are normal when the body is working on certain things.  Most people think that swollen lymph glands mean they have some kind of cancer or something but that’s not normally the case.  We try to get our patients to understand how the body works, and how the body works correctly so that it can regain and maintain real health.

We’re talking about headaches and sinus drainage. I think we’re doing a good job of making these health shops have good simple information that people can use, and keeping them fairly short so the viewer doesn’t have to spend a lot of time learning about health. And were talking real health here, not just medication to cover up symptoms or handle the condition.

This month were talking about Spring Allergies and this week we’re talking about Leaky Gut.  We always give great information out and try to keep it simple so that it’s easy to understand and have practical solutions.  Almost everyone that comes into our office has a leaky gut, and this lends towards Food allergies and/or sensitivities.  If you’re constantly reacting to what you’re eating, then there’s tons of inflammation throughout the body and can cause all kinds of proble

Bula Natural Health Family! “Bula” is a Fijian term used for many occasions but more so as a greeting for good health. We are moving to warmer temperatures and changing colors outside as we settle into the spring season. This month is more about allergies and why we would have them in the first place. Our health is our greatest currency. Many people often know about sickness or we hear more about health issues rather than understanding what it takes to be healthy. Let’s chang

This week we’re talking about vitamin D deficiency, which gives us symptoms of spring allergies.  Our bodies have a great detox and drainage system already to use if we have not overburdened it over time and have the correct nutrients for the body to be able to use these systems.
